After I recovered from a staph infection on my leg, I've been wearing gi pants to jiu-jitsu. I like the way they feel. I need to get a couple more pairs; washing the same pants every night is getting old. Anyone else wear gi pants? Any recommendations for an inexpensive pair? Single or double weave? Pros and cons to wearing gi pants to roll in lieu of shorts?

I like the ripstop material ones, especially for nogi. They just feel less like you are wearing a heavy gi. My favorite of regular material are my Ouano pants, and my favorite ripstop pants (it's also lighter weight, which is nice for tourneys) so far were the second pair of pants that comes with a Break Point Deluxe gi.

They are one of those deal of the day sites. So check daily. Sometimes its rash guard or some fight shorts. But there are a lot of Gi and Gi pant deals on here too.
or you should keep your infected ass at HOME!
See the quote below, Taylor.
Also, I got ringworm while wearing those tights... a dermatologist told me that wearing those tights probably contributed to getting it. Gi pants allow your sweat to evaporate better. Either way, shower thoroughly before the sweat dries and if you get cut or scratched or scraped, you need to take care of it immediately.Quote:

I train in sprawl gi pants. There called gi-flex gi pant.
I think you need to find a new dermatologist, It's just the opposite. Most GI pants are made from cotton ( unless you get the nice hemp GI pants from somewhere like Datsura) which hold in the sweat and bacteria. that's why I hate training GI because the cotton absorbs the sweat and gets heavy and does not evaporate.Quote:

No disrespect, but 9 times out 10 peoples are lack luster when it comes to hygiene. I've grappled for 15+ years and never even had ringworm.Quote:

I have gotten ringworm 3 times in a year
Some peoples skin are just easy to catch it
Sounds like some dirty grappling partners. Remind us where u train so I know to wear a bubble if I roll there...Quote:

The only thing I hate about gi pants is that during leg locks my opponents feet will sometimes get snagged in my crotch messing up my leg positioning.
Damn you Sir, you beat me to it lol. +1^^^Quote:

I was thinking that Corky and this guy were the same person,and after reading some of Taylors posts I realized I wasted a lot of my precious time on reading some of his stupid shit.But at least I was shown the true meaning of the Troll ( and I don't mean Corky) .Quote:
